Ramakrishna Mission Charitable Dispensary

Responding to the urgent medical and health needs of the poor the Ashrama started a Charitable Dispensary in a small ramshackle room. It became famous as ‘Baba ka hospital’ – Hospital of the sadhus. The poor and sick gravitated towards it and it became known throughout the locality that the dispensary was the best place to avail quality medical attention at nominal charges.

Today, the Ashrama has Allopathy as well as Homeopathy sections. Specialists in Orthopaedic, Ophthalmology, E.N.T., Gynaecology, Dental, Paediatric, Psychiatry,besides General Physicians offer free services regularly. A well-equipped Physiotherapy Unit, Pathology Laboratory, and X-Ray Unit are attached to the Dispensary. ECG investigations are carried out by Technicians and Doctors.
